Personal Defense for Handicapped Shooters

ByEditor

Shoot, move and communicate. All team personal defense training involves some form of these three rules. But what happens when a shooter is disabled and/or in a wheelchair?

Handicapped individuals are restricted in movement and often require help in personal defense situations. PDTV host and G&A.com blogger George Wehby and instructor Christian Fleming cover what you’ll need to know when trying to defend a disabled person and how to effectively get them to cover. You never know when you’ll be forced to use these tactics for disabled shooters.

Derlin blocks are useful but introduce other issues such as setup time, lining up pins, torque flex, etc. I often found the need to apply more than mil-spec torque to the barrel nut when installing a barrel and could visually see the upper flexing. It made be cringe but I didn’t know of any other option.
